- The University of New Mexico received a three-year, $566,476 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation to support collaborative research on negotiated planning for stochastic control of dynamical systems. Funded under the NSF's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), the award will allow researchers to improve methods for controlling uncertain dynamical processes through cooperative modeling and decision-making. The project directly supports the NSF Engineering directorate's goals of...
- This $113,370 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to transform introductory engineering courses at a Hispanic-serving two-year college. The goal is to enhance student success and interest in pursuing STEM degrees through a project-based learning approach. The award will fund the development of quasi-independent, low-cost classroom materials and curricula that provide early-career engineering students with significant...
- This $399,997 federal project grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to develop and research improved teaching strategies to support student engagement in science civic participation. The project, awarded to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska, will incorporate experiential learning and civic engagement activities into a large-enrollment introductory science literacy course. The research will examine the impact of these...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $399,994 Project Grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to the University of Hawaii at Manoa. This 3-year project, beginning on September 1, 2025, aims to develop and test immersive group learning activities that utilize spatial augmented reality, tangible user interfaces, and natural language processing to help architecture and civil engineering students better comprehend fundamental engineering concepts and visualize solutions to...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $499,990 Project Grant to the University of New Mexico (UNM) under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076). The grant, titled "COLLABORATE, ELEVATE, AND ENGINEER TOGETHER: EXPLORING THE ROLE OF ORGANIZATIONAL CITIZENSHIP BEHAVIOR," aims to improve student learning and engagement in mechanical engineering courses at UNM. The project introduces the concept of organizational citizenship behavior into the classroom, encouraging students to support and collaborate with their peers. Through structured learning activities, the project will demonstrate how cooperative behaviors can lead to improved student learning, greater confidence, and a stronger connection to the engineering field. The expected outcomes include creating supportive, collaborative classrooms and developing teaching and learning strategies that can be shared to prepare students for their engineering careers. The project period runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2028.
